The Wolf In Me novel Chapter 73

Part 1 First Time Real Combat

Luka's POV

"Keep your focus, Mason. Don't forget that enemies can come from any direction," I reminded, throwing my millionth successful punch at him as I trained him for the worst.

As I watched him stand back up from the gym floors, I waited for him to settle again, with my arms ready for another round of fighting.

"I'm ready now dad, let's," he started, before I kicked his an*s with another two to three punches, falling back on the floor.

"Darn, dad, why?" He asked, puzzled that I didn't give him any chances.

"During combat, you can't expect to have your enemy return a conversation. They will just focus on attacking. Less talk, more focus and fighting. We are weakest in our human form. So we must focus to fight in every form."

Removing my punching gloves, I sat down right next to him, exhaling.

"One day, you will have to fend for yourself. I won't be around forever. You have to learn how to take care of our people. Protect, teach, show them the right paths for a better future. It all starts from here, son," I explained, lightly touching Mason's heart with his hand, "and here," I continued, touching his forehead.

Mason slightly peeked at me, then looked away into contemplation.

"I understand now dad," he said, standing up from the floor, steadying himself up.

Watching me standing up he promptly moved a leg to push me back down, giving me no chance to act.

"That's the spirit! Keep going!" I urged, avoiding a dangerous move from Mason.

Mason's POV

Feeling breathless out of the intense training with dad, I rushed up the stairs, making my way to the shower to freshen up before the date I had with my beloved mate. I quickly chose my black tight fit suit and black tie, knowing that it was her favourite suit I had and rushed, removing my clothes before even going into the bathroom.

"How many times do I have to tell you to never get naked before getting into the bathroom son?!"

Hearing my mother's voice made me jump out of my skin, closing the bathroom door behind me in a rush.

"Sorry, mum."

Still holding onto the locked door, I breathed heavily, trying to gather myself from the shock of knowing that for the millionth time mum managed to see my white full moon with the crack at the centre.

"Shit!" I whispered, moving away from the door.

Shaking my head I hopped into the shower, opening the warm water on me. Washing my hair first, I grabbed the shampoo bottle and squeezed out a blob on my left hand, applying it to my hair. As I moved my fingers on my scalp into a rubbing motion, I started to think about my future, wondering if I will ever be as good or better than my father. Sometimes I didn't feel as ready as my dad thinks, but I trust his word.

Carol, my mate called me as soon as I wrapped the blue towel around my waist.

"Hey babe," I said, looking at the mirror after rubbing it clean from the vapour that filled every inch of the bathroom.

"Mason, we have a problem," she started, her voice agitated and breathy.

"What's wrong Carol?"

"It's the yellow stone pack. They are on their way to attack my pack. They have threatened us one too many times and now their threats are becoming physical too."

"I'm on my way. Stay in your room. Be there in ten," I said shortly, leaving the bathroom, choosing something else to wear.

"Dad, we have a problem!" I shouted, from the other side of the corridor as I watched him approach.

He proceeded further towards me raising his eyebrows.

"The river bed pack is in trouble. They are under attack from the yellow stone pack. We need to help them, dad."

Grabbing my car keys I scrambled to my white Suv, turning on the engine. It took me just a few minutes to reach my mate's main entrance which was being opened by the guards.

"Carol!" I breathed, knocking at her bedroom door.
